POEM STARTER

Submitted by Maranda Quinn

Write a Somonka from the perspectives of two lovers. A Somonka is made of two Tankas, with the second responding to the first.

A tanka consists of five lines with a syllabic structure of 5-7-5-7-7

opposing lovers

petals fall like dreams

your smile, the sun’s gentle glow

warmth in the still night

we share whispers, soft and sweet

i find home within your light

———————-

petals weave through the dark

your voice, a dreadful river

drowning my heart

in the dance of shadows cast

by whispers in the night

I REALLY LIKE THIS OMG 😱
